Prospective controlled cohort study of Troponin I levels in patients undergoing elective spine surgery for degenerative conditions: Prone versus supine position

Highlights • Early TnI levels after non-cardiac surgery represent subclinical cardiac stress. • Prolonged prone positioning is a potential additional, independent, cardiac stress. • Routine post-operative TnI monitoring has been suggested as a “standard of care”. • Prospective cohort study of electi...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Early TnI levels after non-cardiac surgery represent subclinical cardiac stress. • Prolonged prone positioning is a potential additional, independent, cardiac stress. • Routine post-operative TnI monitoring has been suggested as a “standard of care”. • Prospective cohort study of elective spine surgery: prone versus supine. • No genuine TnI elevation either group: routine TnI monitoring is not justified.
